Question

Why does God elect so few and not see fit to elect the vast majority of mankind?

Answer

God was under no obligation to choose any, so if a few are chosen then we are thankful. But, I believe that in the end, when it is all over, we will see that there are more chosen ones then those that are not. What we don't see is the millions and millions (maybe billions) of infants and small children that have died for thousands of years in parts of the world with high rates of infant mortality. Even in our country we abort (murder) babies. Every one of these babies and little children went non-stop to heaven, which reveals that they were elect.

Also, during the 1,000 year earthly reign of Christ, there will be massive salvations all over the world for 1,000 years and a massive population explosion.

So in the end, I believe that heaven will have more people than hell. Hell will have a lot, but there will be more in heaven worshipping Jesus!
